Stanley Creates: Coffee Painting
Coffee, it's not just a drink!
Coffee painting is a centuries-old technique that produces a painting similar to watercolor. By modifying the intensity of the brewed coffee, artists can adjust the saturation of the hue. Join Lauren Linahon to learn how to transform your energizing morning drink into a beautiful work of art!
Stanley Creates is an interactive program for children and teens to learn artmaking techniques using everyday materials. Taking inspiration from the museum’s collection, participants play with materials to create unique projects at home. Lauren Linahon, a master’s candidate in art education at the College of Education, demonstrates the process and provides feedback to participants.
